My children and I went shopping on Amazon.com recently. We bought some really fun books and movies.
Book title: Charlie and Mama Kyna
My children wouldn’t let me put down the book. It’s so cute and full of stuffed animals who want to find their mother. I cried while reading this book to the kids.
The pictures are so vivid and beautiful.
Book title: The Velveteen Rabbit
My children smiled while I was reading this book. The rabbit is cute.
I guess quitting smoking is making me really emotional. Today on the way home from the tanning salon (MIL has DD) I started to think about how she basically has no Grandfathers. My fiancee’s dad lives 15 miles away and has only seen her TWICE! She is almost 12 weeks old!!! It just pisses me off because I would give ANYTHING to have my dad around. I would give ANYTHING to be able to have a conversation with my dad that I can actually understand.
My dad lives in a veteran’s home. When I was 19 he had a brain tumor, and 2 days before the operation, he had a severe stroke. He lost his left leg, and most of his speech.
I’m never going to have daddy walk me down the aisle. I’m not going to have him be around for family dinners. It makes me sooo sad that people just take life for granted. And his father should know better! His wife just found out she has MS. But it’s not slowing her down. If it were his stepdaughter and her husband having a baby they would go nuts!! Why can’t he step up and be a grandfather to his own flesh and blood granddaughter??
I’m sorry, but I am just so sad, I’ve been crying for like an hour now. It’s really upsetting me.
Oh, so the point of this whole thing was to say that I made my fiancee call his dad and invite him up to our house "for dinner". When in all actuality it’s going to be a family meeting. I have to get this off my chest.
